Were there only a way to convey passing clouds,
to display transcience with the stroke of a pen.
Such a feat, would at once, make both humble and proud
those who've sought that connection again, and again.

There's an infinite blue that remains non-descript,
and a depth to the shadows beyond what lay here.
Such in-adequate clues form a scene that's been stripped
to a black and white image again, for, I fear,

there may be such a way though it's not been revealed.
To transcend from this plane and the sum of its' parts,
and to simply describe what has long been concealed,
with such effort-less grace it could only be art.

Elements of a scene, composition and light,
yet the focus, somehow, still does not seem quite right.

Doc?

From your lips...
to the poets' pens...

Amen!

And I loved the rhyme, the scheme,
the everything of your talent!

TEACH ME!

Your words ARE art Dr.  Very well done sir!

Much more nicer than life that way.



It's great to read you, Doc. You are my personal Rx.

Sunshine,
Thank you, what a great compliment, and, though I doubt it is true, I would be more than happy to share this modicum of knowledge of the poetic arts. However, please bear in mind, you probably know more than I do already.
Doc

Gentle Spirit,
How very kind of you to say. Thank you.

Serenity,
Ah, and so good to hear from you, you never cease to amaze. Hopefully, I'll be around a little more often now, Thanks as always,
Doc
